    Any good tv series to watch

    Re: Any good tv series too watch Crobat already covered pretty much every good show ever. But It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia deserves a second vote, so here it is.

    General Thoughts: English Extension 1

    Wow we wrote the exact same amount for each! Yeah only like 5 minutes, it made me feel bad but it wasn't enough time to fit in an extra argument but too much time to feel content just sitting there

    Well legal aid is the body that tries to uphold the right to be represented in court regardless of means.

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    Hmm, yeah, we have a right to a fair trial including legal representation. But that right is limited by the fact that common law (Dietrich v The Queen) stipulates we're not always going to be entitled to a free lawyer. So it's a right that is limited by common law, in my understanding. But it's...

    It's cool, I misread an option on one of them too. We all do silly things when we're rushing :)

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    It says 'statute' not state. Answer is A.

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    I think that one tricked a lot of people though so don't worry :)

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    Yep! Only plays a role in sentencing :)

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    That one was hard! But I think it's D because it can be given by a family member if the actual victim can't do it (if they've died or they're incapacitated)

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    Fairly sure it's A, Dietrich v The Queen
  11. SuchSmallHands

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    Yeah, murder. Anything can be judge only.
  12. SuchSmallHands

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    What are you arguing then? You can have a judge only trial for indictable offences?
  13. SuchSmallHands

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    Every single indictable offence goes through local court to establish a prima facie case. The FIRST court is always local, didn't you do committal hearings?

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    It's okay! I got a silly one wrong too :( I think everyone will have one that they could have gotten but just did something silly on xx

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    Nope, previous serious convictions and manslaughter. A definite danger to society. The biggest recent murder trial in the country (R v Gittany) was judge only, there's no issue there, happens regularly. C is the only plausible option.
  16. SuchSmallHands

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    Yeah, basically that ^^
  17. SuchSmallHands

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    Okay, I don't want to fight, but I'll justify my answers. It's the first court, so that's always local for the prima facie case establishment. You're right about the children's one though, I read that option as she is incapable of committing the offence, missed the presumption.
  18. SuchSmallHands

    Section I: Multiple Choice

    Nah, 20 is definitely C. You can have a case without a jury it's fine. 3 years for killing someone if you have prior convictions won't be accepted by the DPP. 10 is B as well. 18 is B I think, she's 12, doli incapax is only provisional for 10-14, she can be convicted at 12. It's definitely not C...
